This is just an idea but with the brains on here I know something could be done. The hd dock let's you have legitimate usb ports. Would it be possible to use a PS3 controller directly through it? Could make emulators and such a great and awesome thing. Any ideas?
You can buy the six axis controller app in the market. It will use Bluetooth to connect them and you won't need a dock or a cable.

lol, i know this now. had read a while back about it not working well with the bionic. didn't check for an update before posting. looked at it about an hour afterward....and i now have the sixaxis app running and am reliving the megaman days...
Sixaxis works on the Bionic now. You need to bypass IME so it makes the controller act like a hardware keyboard. Some people notice lag when using it through the HDMI though. Personally I haven't had that issue.
Do i need any hack o mod to use this app?
Yes i check the market and say root required lol

Hi everyone.
Does anyone know if it is possible to use the Droid 4's physical keyboard as a bluetooth keyboard on the Nexus 7? Or the iPad.
Thanks... this would be awesome

I found this on the play store, no idea if it works.

Theres also a app called BlueputDroid which emulates a generic bluetooth mouse/keyboard.
EDIT: I tried the Tablet Remote app, but I dont think it worked on either the tablet ( Asus Transformer Infinity) or the phone (Droid 4), I got bluetooth service discovery errors on both, but the BlueputDroid does work, its what I use. I hope the Tablet Remote gets worked out because it looks like a really nice app!

I found some interesting USB Controllers on Thinkgeek, there is a classic NES one among others. What really caught my interest was the N64 version, I have the N64 emulator and I would love to pair the two. Do you guys think it would work with an OTG cable and some key mapping?
Here's the link to the controller, but take a look at the other ones on there too:

I think it would definitely work with dead trigger since you can map the buttons. other games.. idk sorry.
I was mostly looking to play some Super Mario 64 with it lol. Is there anyway you can use this controller then output to a TV?
I don't see why It wouldn't. It's very similar to a Dualshock PS3 controller, so you should be able to edit the buttons.
You still have a N64 controller?
Should work since the emulator allows you to map the buttons.
Ive been using the wiimote app (free version) along with my kids wii controller with a wii pro controller attached. Works great for games like Mario 64.

+1 or a PS3 Bluetooth
No way to output to a TV yet.

The Wii Controller is a great idea, I've seen someone use the Wiimote but not the classic one. That's awesome, I may give that a try instead. Thanks

Are there any apps that would allow me to use my tablet as a Bluetooth keyboard for webtop? I would really like to be able to use my tablet as a keyboard when I have my bionic hooked up to the tv with the webtop.

If I was to root my nexus 7, will the controller work?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
There is a known issue with the gamepad layout file that causes this. You have to be rooted to replace the file with the fixed version. It is not game specific as it effects most games and controllers.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
So after I root, how do I fix the game controller file, and where do I get the file.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I also would like to know the fix so I can use tablet remote app to use my phone as a controller for emulators. The app works with everything but emulators. I have tried keymapping without luck
Do a search for wireless xbox controller fix. Should be the same.

I got bug with turning when I turned "accelerometer" on in options ... it was without gamepad
I'm getting tired of getting killed using the touch screen controls. Any recommendations on controllers to play the game? Thanks guys.

Yup - root+ sixaxis widget + ps3 controller is the best solution, especially for the amount of buttons the ps3 controller has. However, before I rooted, I got one of these on sale (not cheap otherwise!) and it's amazing for Shadowgun (haven't tried many other games with it however): http://steelseries.com/products/other/steelseries-free-mobile-wireless-controller
Amazing little thing, great feel and I'm surprised by the quality. Also, cross-platform compatibility (Android, iOS and Windows, for example). I had my doubts, but after using it for awhile... wow. Such a small controller should not perform so well!
HOWEVER: keep in mind that Android compatibility is still spotty with controllers, especially if you do not have root. You'll need a game that either explicitly tells you that it is compatible with the controller of your choice (ie. "compatible with Moga controllers" ) OR has some way to map controls manually in the game. I haven't tried your game, so check first. In Shadowgun and NOVA, for example, in game settings you're able to map buttons. So even without root, you can plug a ps3 controller in via the dock's USB port and map away. Or pair the Free controller and you're off.
If you DO have root, I think there might be ways to emulate touch controllers with root and sixaxis, but I haven't tried. Unless someone else can speak to how well this works? Theoretically, this enables you to play games that aren't even designed for controllers.
Hope this helps!
